			<h1>Set paragraph line spacing</h1>
			<p>In the <a href="https://www.onlyoffice.com/document-editor.aspx" target="_blank" onclick="onhyperlinkclick(this)"><b>Document Editor</b></a>, you can set the line height for the text lines within the paragraph as well as the margins between the current paragraph and the previous one or the subsequent paragraphs.</p>
			<p>To do that,</p>
			<ol>
				<li>place the cursor within the required paragraph, or select several paragraphs with the mouse or the whole text by pressing the <b>Ctrl+A</b> key combination,</li>
				<li>use the corresponding fields on the right sidebar to achieve the desired results:
					<ul>
						<li><b>Line Spacing</b> - set the line height for the text lines within the paragraph. You can select among three options: <b>at least</b> (sets the minimum line spacing that is needed to fit the largest font or graphic in the line), <b>multiple</b> (sets line spacing that can be expressed in numbers greater than 1), <b>exactly</b> (sets fixed line spacing). You can specify the necessary value in the field on the right.</li>
						<li><b>Paragraph Spacing</b> defines the amount of spacing between paragraphs.
							<ul>
								<li><b>Before</b> defines the amount of spacing before the paragraph.</li>
								<li><b>After</b> defines the amount of spacing after the paragraph.</li>
								<li>
									<b>Don't add interval between paragraphs of the same style</b> - please check this box if you don't need any spacing between paragraphs of the same style.

								</li>
							</ul>
						</li>                        
					</ul>
				</li>
			</ol>
            <p>These parameters can also be found in the <b>Paragraph - Advanced Settings</b> window. To open the <b>Paragraph - Advanced Settings</b> window, right-click the text and choose the <b>Paragraph Advanced Settings</b> option from the menu or use the <b>Show advanced settings</b> option on the right sidebar. Then switch to the <b>Indents &amp; Spacing</b> tab and go to the <b>Spacing</b> section.</p>

			<p>To quickly change the current paragraph line spacing, you can also use the <b>Paragraph line spacing</b> <span class = "icon icon-linespacing"></span> icon on the <b>Home</b> tab of the top toolbar selecting the required value from the list: 1.0, 1.15, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, or 3.0 lines.</p>
